"Wish I Didn't Miss You" is a song by American recording artist Angie Stone. It was written by Andrea Martin and Ivan Matias for Stone's second studio album Mahogany Soul (2002), while production was helmed by Martin, Matias, Stone and Swizz Beatz. The song features an interpolated composition of The O'Jays's 1972 record "Back Stabbers" as written by Leon Huff, Gene McFadden, and John Whitehead.

Critical reception

Jose F. Promis from Allmusic wrote that Mahogany Soul's "true gem is the smoldering, gorgeous, aching "Wish I Didn't Miss You," which pulls forward with an unstoppable beat and features a stellar, yearning performance from Miss Stone."[1] Similarly, Barry Walters from Rolling Stone declared it the album's "knockout track".[2] Spin magazine ranked the song among the 20 best singles of 2002 and wrote: "If Angie were skinny, Whitney would be unnecessary and Mary J. would worried. Sad but true".[3]

Chart performance

Remixed by Hex Hector and Mac Quayle, "Wish I Didn't Miss You" became a successful club hit and gay anthem.[4]
